In such cases, after using the helmet and to restore the system efficiency, remove the inner
visor from the helmet visor and let it dry with dry and lukewarm air. The same procedure must
be applied to the helmet, in order to dry out humidity in case it has formed up as a conse-
quence of the conditions described above.

INNER VISOR DISASSEMBLY
2.1 Remove the visor equipped with the Pinlock
®
inner visor.
2.2 Widen the visor and release the Pinlock
®
inner visor from the pins (Fig. 12).
2.3 Release the visor.
MAINTENANCE AND CLEANING
Remove the Pinlock
®
inner visor from the visor. Using a damp and soft cloth, gently clean it
with neutral liquid soap. Remove the soap under running water.
Dry the inner visor with dry and lukewarm air without wiping it.
To keep the features of the inner visor in good conditions over time, let the helmet dry in a
ventilated and dry place with the visor open after use.
Keep it away from heat sources and store it in a place away from direct light.

VISION PROTECTION SYSTEM (VPS)
The new and exclusive inner Vision Protection System (VPS) is a
- moulded sun scre-
en with scratch-resistant and fog-resistant treatment.
Using it is very simple and practical: Just lower it to activate it or lift it to remove it from the
field of vision. It is useful in all sorts of situations, both on long journeys out of town and shor-
ter town trips. Moreover, the fastening system allows you to assemble and disassemble the
sun screen without any tools to allow ordinary maintenance and cleaning operations.
VPS OPERATION
The VPS mechanism allows activating the sun screen by simply lowering it until it partial-
ly covers the visor field of vision. In this way, the desired light transmittance reduction is
achieved.
At any time, without operating the visor, the VPS can be deactivated with a simple movement
and easily pulled up to restore the normal conditions of visibility and protection guaranteed
by the approved helmet visor. To deactivate the VPS, push the slider downwards (Fig. 14)
until you hear the click which means the slider and VPS are correctly in place. To activate the
VPS, push the slider upwards (Fig. 15). The VPS has been designed to ensure an easy, quick
and tool-free disassembly.
PRECAUTIONS FOR USE
The current approval standards (ECE22-05) state that the visor minimum light transmittance
levels must be greater than 80% when riding at night and not less than 50% when riding
during the day. For this reason, when riding during the day under particularly bright weather
conditions, e.g. very strong sunlight caused by high intensity and/or incidence of the sunbe-
ams, the use of sunglasses - which entail a transmittance much lower than 50% - turns out
to be advisable, if not absolutely necessary, to reduce eye fatigue on long trips. Sunglasses
also reduce the risk of direct dazzling as opposed to the use of mere approved visors.
However, the use of sunglasses makes it difficult to perform emergency manoeuvres when
the maximum visibility range of the visor must be quickly restored. Just think, for example, of
what happens when you enter a tunnel or when unexpected changes in environmental bri-
ghtness occur.
Thanks to its operating mechanism, the VPS makes these operations much easier.
